We took mom over to Kim's house with us for our Easter shindig (after Kait found her basket from the bunny out back...no candy, tho...she got some at Kim's house). Kim's whole family was there, along with Donald's parents. I guess I'm getting to the 'end of the road' because while the food was good, company was good, I just wasn't feeling much of it this time. I get very tired, very quickly (partly the GD, too)...which leads to me getting cranky. Everyone had a good time, tho, especially the kids with the egghunt (pics up top).
I had my ob appt on Monday (vitals good), and just missed seeing the doctor by minutes. We could have waited, but Alex would have had to miss it going to work, so we opted to see his nurse. She told me what I had already figured anyway, that I failed my 3-hour glucose screening (in a big way, too...if you're going to do it, do it right...lol). So, they're bypassing the dietician and sending me to the endocrinologist (sp?), who will help me with my diet, too, of course...but also give me more support in the sugar testing. My mom (and dad..and grandparents) are (were) diabetic, so I'm somewhat familiar with it all. I'll be glad when I do see someone, tho...I feel like crap so much anymore, and I know it's the sugars being off, but I'm not very familiar with the diet (I know the sugar, but carbs are a big thing, too). Anywho, baby's heartbeat was fantastic (was very active while the gal was trying to read it...kept kicking the doppler...lol), and I'm measuring at 36 weeks (not terrible). I'll have my NST this week (Thursday), then see the doctor next Monday. Csection date still the same, so we're at 5 1/2 weeks away :)
We also FINALLY got a vehicle we both like and both wanted at a REALLY good price! We traded the truck for an '04 Chrysler Pacifica (kind of a mix between an SUV and a Minivan). It's dark blue, gray interior, seats 7 (tho the last row folds down when we don't need it), all the fancy stuff inside..we love it! I don't have to worry about where to put the stroller now! LOL!
We went swimming at mom's on Monday, too. Tuesday was just some brief errands in town, and today is AHHHHHHHHHH nothing day! We got Kaitlynne a wading pool, so I've been outside with her most of the day while she goofed in that. Back to the drive-here, drive-there stuff tomorrow, tho. Things are good, tho (sorry to disappoint, Natalie...).
